Captain Cayless named for the last time for Eels

The Pirtek Parramatta Eels farewell a champion this Saturday evening at Parramatta Stadium, with Nathan Cayless named to play his final NRL match ever after 258 games in the Blue & Gold.

There will be special video and on-field tributes to Cayless before and after the match at Parramatta Stadium, and with a family-friendly kick-off at 5.30pm it's an event no Parramatta fan will want to miss!

Cayless will join his best mate Nathan Hindmarsh in captaining the side for the 220th time, a new record for longest-serving captain of one club and overall in the history of the NRL.

Coach Daniel Anderson, who knew Cayless when he first joined the club more than a decade ago, believes the captain has set the standard at the club for many years.
